Two Bills Drive

‘ The Buffalo Bills announced on Tuesday that only single seats remain for three of the team’s 2003 home games: New England (Sept. 7), Philadelphia (Sept. 28) and Washington (Oct. 19).’

‘Tickets will be available in person at the Ralph Wilson Stadium box office, the Rochester office in Pittsford Plaza, and at all participating Tops Friendly Markets. For those buying tickets at Tops, a handbill policy will again be in effect.’

‘By the end of September last year, the Bills ranked 24th in total yards allowed and 30th in points allowed. However, Buffalo rallied the last half of the season to finish 15th overall and had a pass defense rated sixth best in the NFL. “We started out kind of slow, but I thought we made a lot of progress from the middle of the season to the end. We didn’t take advantage of some turnovers we came up with that hurt us.”‘

The most obvious pick is Josh Reed of the Bills. "If I were a fantasy football guy, I’d take him," Bills assistant GM Tom Modrak says. With Peerless Price in Atlanta, Reed figures to catch a lot of Drew Bledsoe passes this season. Last year, four Bills players had more receptions than Reed, but none of them had a better average per catch than his 13.8 yards.

‘Fans are reminded that individual game tickets for 2003 home games go on sale starting this Saturday, July 12 at 9:00 AM.’

After minicamp, Bledsoe, who probably tried to do too much to offset last season’s defensive struggles, assessed, “We’ve got the ability to beat anybody in the league. The thing that’s inspiring to me is to see the collective attitude that this team has right now … it’s outstanding, probably the best I’ve ever been around.”

For Gregg Williams, the 2003 campaign will be his third in Buffalo after being named as the 12th head coach in team history. The consistent improvement and fierce competitiveness displayed by the Bills in two seasons under Williams has Buffalo fans extremely encouraged and optimistic about the team's immediate future.

Mike Williams, T, Buffalo Bills: This massive second-year player will be a perennial Pro Bowl player for the next decade. He is a powerful force in the run game, but he also has the good feet for pass protection. The Bills have the makings of a good, young line with Williams the foundation.

‘Rep. Collin Peterson, an avid hunter and a Democrat, expects to run for his eighth term in the U.S. House in a race Minnesota Republicans put high on their priority list. One man the Republican state chairman wants in the race is former football star Phil Hansen.’

This year, a number of teams with veteran coaching staffs must turn around their home-field situations if they want to be playing in January. Cleveland, Buffalo and Arizona all have 9-15 home records since 2000.

The addition of 11 defensive veterans alone makes the Buffalo Bills a serious contender, but the most important acquisition of all might very well be assistant HC Dick LeBeau. He brings the considerable experience and creativity that should allow the Bills to get the most out of their two new high-impact LBs, Takeo Spikes and Jeff Posey, as well as the anchor at the position, London Fletcher.

Quarterback Drew Bledsoe completed 375 passes for 4,359 yards for the Bills in 2002 and moved into the number seven position on the Buffalo Bills' Top 20 Career Passers list for regular season play. Alex Van Pelt completed his eighth season with the team in 2002 and moved into the ninth spot on the list. Top 20 All-Time Passers
